Hi, everyone. My name is Michał Górny and I'm a first year MSE student at Poznan University of Technology. I'm studying power engineering, though most of you probably know me as a Gentoo developer and initiator of a few big projects lately. I would like to participate as a student in this year's GSoC, running a project of implementing an OpenID server on identity.gentoo.org. The goal is to provide a complete OpenID provider using Gentoo LDAP authentication and to develop support for using OpenID in Gentoo services such as blogs and forums. The goals include: - building a complete and secure OpenID server, - providing all the options necessary to control OpenID use effectively -- including changing permissions given to the sites and controlling the data exchanged with them, - using OpenID extended attribute exchange to pass Gentoo-specific information in the OpenID requests including ACLs for Gentoo services, - using Gentoo LDAP servers for authentication and obtaining user information, - supporting multiple authentication mechanisms including: a) secure password-based authentication (challenge-response likely), b) client certificate-based auth, c) SSH-based auth, d) GPG-based auth. The project will be implemented in django, as an extension of the current identity.gentoo.org code [1]. Do you have any questions or suggestions?
